Ranked in the last two positions are the content "Determining measures to coordinate with other educational forces to carry out career guidance activities" and "Determining the content of career guidance activities" with an average score of 3.19 and 3.15.

In planning the management of career guidance activities according to the new general education program, the first thing is to determine the objectives of the activity. This is the basis for carrying out the following tasks such as determining the content, methods, conditions and resources for the activity. Therefore, limitations in the goal determination stage will lead to weaknesses in the implementation of related contents.

In fact, secondary schools still carry out career guidance activities according to the current program and mainly for grade 9 students with very little time, only 1 period/month. This is not a compulsory educational activity like the new general education program, there are no regulations on assessment and evaluation. Along with that, secondary schools in Lang Giang district, Bac Giang province still face many difficulties in many aspects, so career guidance activities in schools are not focused on. Therefore, planning work often stops at discussions in professional meetings, school council meetings, there is no separate plan with specific contents related to career guidance activities. This is also a limitation in the management of career guidance activities in secondary schools in Lang Giang district, Bac Giang province that needs to be overcome.

From there, other contents follow such as: Assigning specific tasks to members participating in career guidance activities in schools in accordance with the qualities and capacities of the staff; Coordinating with parents in career guidance education for students; Coordinating with social organizations in junior high schools to implement career guidance education for students (Youth Union, Parents' Association, School Trade Union); Coordinating with local socio-political organizations (Commune People's Committee, Women's Union, Veterans' Association, Commune Youth Union...).

The results in Table 2.7 show that the direction of career guidance activities according to the new general education program by the Principals of secondary schools in Lang Giang district, Bac Giang province is mainly assessed at an average level (Average scores range from 2.84 to 2.93).

To carry out career guidance activities according to the new general education program, first of all, staff and teachers must be knowledgeable about this activity. Therefore, directing the school's teaching staff to study the contents of career guidance activities in the new general education program and the current regulations guiding the implementation of career guidance activities is an important measure that needs to be taken into account. However, 18% of managers and teachers in the survey sample of

We rated this measure as weak and 79% rated it as moderate. Other measures in the content of directing career guidance activities according to the new general education program are also assessed at an average level with a similar rate ( Directing the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 88%; Directing the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program for students - 83%; Directing the activities of testing and evaluating career guidance education results for students according to the new general education program - 79%; Directing the coordination with educational forces inside and outside the school to implement career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the allocation of funding, facilities, and means for implementing career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 76%; Directing the selection and application of methods of organizing career guidance activities suitable to the actual conditions of the junior high school and the locality - 84%; Directing the summary of the process of implementing career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 79%; Directing the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the allocation of funds, facilities, and means for implementing career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 76%; Directing the selection and application of methods of organizing career guidance activities suitable to the actual conditions of the junior high school and the locality - 84%; Directing the summary of the process of implementing career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the allocation of funds, facilities, and means for implementing career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 76%; Directing the selection and application of methods of organizing career guidance activities suitable to the actual conditions of the junior high school and the locality - 84%; Directing the summary of the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the allocation of funds, facilities, and means for implementing career guidance activities according to the new general education program - 75%; Directing the selection and application of methods of organizing career guidance activities suitable to the actual conditions of the secondary school and the locality - 7 New general education program, comments, evaluations, lessons learned for activities - 78%). Talking to us, Mr. D.QH of Tan Thinh Secondary School said: Currently, the school only implements the career guidance program for grade 9 students with 9 periods/year according to the current program. Therefore, the Principal only focuses on directing the homeroom teachers of grade 9 to be in charge of career guidance activities for their class without implementing it for other classes.

Thus, the research results show that the Principals of secondary schools in Lang Giang district, Bac Giang province have not been closely involved in directing the implementation of career guidance activities according to the new general education program. Although experiential and career guidance activities in secondary schools as a compulsory educational activity have not been implemented in practice, there needs to be a transition process so that teachers and those working in career guidance can gradually get used to, catch up with and implement effectively when the program is officially implemented.
